KTM X-Bow GT

Safety

Four layers of carbon fibre, epoxy resin, elaborate handiwork, autoclave technology: They all come together to produce the twin-wall, two-part, extremely lightweight, carb on monocoque, which is manufactured by composite-fibre specialist Wethje in Germany. The result is a carbon-fibre construction that ensures the highest levels of safety, but only weighs 80 kg – with an unbelievably high torsional stiffness of 35.000 Nm/ rad.

General

Roll bar

…In the event of a rollover, optimum protection is guaranteed by the aluminium roll bars integrated in the monocoque. They withstand loads of up to 2.5 times the weight of the vehicle.WWW…

Breaks

Seat belts

…Driver and passenger are protected by a four-point safety belt from Schroth, which is used in racing.WWW…

Breaks

Brembo breaks

…The Brembo brake system employs a four-piston, fixed-calliper brake on the front axle, with an internally ventilated, slotted disc measuring 305 mm in diameter. The rear unit is a two-piston, fixed-calliper brake with a diameter of 262 mm. The KTM X-BOW GT therefore only needs 32.9 meters to brake from 100 km/h to 0.WWW…

Brake pads

Touring brake pads

…Whether it be inner-city traffic, out on country or mountain roads, the touring brake pads provide constant braking performance in all temperature ranges, while conserving the discs. They also reduce braking noise. At 0.49 μ, the coefficient of friction is mid-range.WWW…

Carbon monocoque

Crashbox

…The crash box at the nose of the vehicle provides additional safety. Thanks to its carbon-aluminium sandwich construction, it even complies with the strict safety regulations of the FIA GT and Formula 3.WWW…

Technological leadership

…The KTM X-BOW is the world’s first production vehicle to boast a monocoque made completely from composite carbon fibre material – a trailblazing and pioneering technology, previously reserved exclusively for racing vehicles.WWW…
